Ursula Burns was CEO of Xerox from 2009 to 2016, the first among black women to be a CEO of a Fortune 500 company, and the first woman to succeed another as head of a Fortune 500 company. Most pertinent to todays conversation is her board roles. Ms. Burns sat on the Boards of Directors for more than 15 companies, including Boston Scientific, the University of Rochester, the MIT Corporation, American Express, Exxon Mobile, Uber, Waystar and more. During this conversation, which was held at AfroTech Executive Brooklyn, Ms. Burns talks with Heather Hiles, managing partner at Black Ops Ventures, and founder at Pathbrite about how corporate boards work, how to get one one, and determining if its the right fit for you in the first place.

Ask Dr. Akilah Cadet how to be a better ally, and she'll first tell you this: Allyship is a waste of time, because allyship allows for comfort. Instead, the Founder and CEO of Change Cadet, an organizational development consulting firm offering a wide array of anti-racism and diversity services for companies and global brands, calls on each of us to join the lifelong work of being an ACCOMPLICE to change. This week, Phoebe sits down for a powerful discussion with Dr. Cadet on the slippery nature of allyship and how all of us can become soldiers of change in the workforce (and beyond) through a consistent process of learning and unlearning the biases and privileges that shape us. Tune in to learn how Dr. Cadet drew on her many experiences of judgment, “isms,” and barriers in the workplace when evolving Change Cadet, how she finds room for causeless, selfish joy, and why she believes Beyoncé is the gold standard for leadership. Noteworthy quotes: [30:05] Allyship is a waste of time. Allyship allows for comfort. [31:47] Being an accomplice is not a point of arrival. It's lifelong, and it's always happening. [36:40] I don't limit myself. I allow myself to go where I'm inspired, where I feel like there's opportunity to create.

Monique has generated hundreds of millions for the startup companies she’s collaborated with. After a childhood of adversity, Monique proved herself as a young executive on the rise at USA Today.

Be sure to listen in today, Monique shares highlights from her Undercover Billionaire journey plus how to move beyond perfectionism & fear. Connect with Monique Idlett-Mosley: Instagram and Reign Ventures Let’s continue the conversation in our online sanctuary for Black women entrepreneurs doing ALL levels of business- The Black Woman CEO Circle **ABOUT UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE** DISCOVERY ANNOUNCES SECOND SEASON OF ‘UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE’ WITH THREE BUSINESS TYCOONS VYING TO MAKE A MILLION-DOLLAR COMPANY IN JUST 90 DAYS ‘UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE’ Returns Wednesday, January 6, at 8 PM ET/PT Followed by the All-New ‘UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE: COMEBACK CITY’ at 10 PM ET/PT on Discovery (LOS ANGELES) – In the first season of UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE, self-made businessman Glenn Stearns bet big that the American Dream was still alive and well. Viewers watched as Glenn was stripped of his name, wealth and contacts and dropped into a city he’s never been to see if he could build a million-dollar company in 90 days with only $100 in his pocket. Inspired by Glenn’s audacious bet, three new entrepreneurs have stepped forward to embark on the same bold challenge. UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE returns for a second season on Wednesday, January 6 at 8 PM ET/PT on Discovery, followed by an all-new series UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE COMEBACK CITY at 10 PM ET/PT on Discovery. The series will also stream on Discovery+. This season, three successful entrepreneurs are betting $1 million that they can go undercover in three different cities, start their own business with just $100 and top the million-dollar mark in just 90 days. At the end of the challenge, each of them will reveal their true identities to the people who helped build their business. But will they be able to turn their big ideas into a reality? And can they navigate the impact of COVID-19 that has forced so many businesses across the country to shutter? Each person will need to rely on their own unique secrets of success. Everyone has their own game plans, secret business hacks and strategies. After all, there’s more than one way to make $1 million dollars. The entrepreneurs going undercover this year include: Grant Cardone, an unapologetic entrepreneur and international motivational speaker, real estate investor, sales trainer and author of best-selling publications, including The 10XRule and Be Obsessed or Be Average. The traditional concept of the American Dream -- work hard, save money and own a home -- is wrong, according to Grant. He maintains that people have everything you need, and cash is trash when it sits idle. You need to put your money and your contacts to work. There’s nothing Grant won’t do for an opportunity to succeed, and he believes that relentless attitude should be adopted by everyone.

A serial entrepreneur since the age of 14, Elaine broke into the male-dominated construction business and bulldozed her way into becoming one of the industry's biggest players. Elaine doesn’t let anyone or anything stop her from achieving her goals. She has developed and built everything from luxury homes to casinos and hospitals. Elaine moves forward with intense determination, no visible fear of failure, and an uncanny ability to get her way. Following the premiere of UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE will be the all-new series UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE: COMEBACK CITY premiering Wednesday, January 6 at 10 PM ET/PT on Discovery. In this new series, Glenn Stearns from the first season of UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE, returns to Erie, Pa., where he built his business, Underdog BBQ, in just 90 days. Now he has a new mission: rescuing small businesses on the brink of going bust. When the economy hit the skids earlier the year, Glenn was contacted by other Erie businessmen and women who were struggling to keep their own dream alive. Each episode will follow Glenn as he works to turn around one of these small businesses. After assessing their operation and identifying areas to change, he’ll work with them to transform it in just 27 days. Why 27 days? The average small business in America has just 27 days in cash reserves. Glenn believes that if a business can’t turn it around in that amount of time, they'll never be able to. Each episode will give all business owners key lessons on how to stay afloat and grow. Glenn will identify the many pitfalls new businesses face and lay out a plan to reach their money-making goals. Though, no money will be handed out. Viewers will get simple tips on how to earn fast money and thrive despite all the odds. From diners and boxing gyms to coffee shops and rust belt manufacturing, Glenn will share all that he’s learned and might have a few surprise tricks up his sleeves as well. To catch fans up on last season, Discovery will be re-airing the first season of UNDERCOVER BILLIONAIRE in a marathon line-up on Small Business Saturday, beginning at 11 AM ET/PT on Saturday, November 28.

If you’ve ever experienced unemployment you understand the fear and even PTSD it can create. Having the rug pulled from beneath your career and finances can leave you reeling and wondering what the future holds. It can also be a blessing in disguise, nudging some of us toward an entrepreneurial path. This week’s guest Rakia Reynolds (@rakiareynolds) founder and CEO of Skai Blue Media (www.skaibluemedia.com), is no stranger to braving the business owner trail. Her brief experience with unemployment led her to ask herself how she could prevent having her world turned upside down ever again. How could she ensure that her children would grow up financially secure? How could she stake her claim in an industry that didn’t necessarily have a designated space for all of her gifts and talents? There was no choice but to carve that space for herself. If you’re asking yourself the same questions, you DEFINITELY need to hear this episode.

This is Quanisha Green, the founder of the Black Women Rise Movement. I am so excited that we are launching our Black Woman CEO podcast. As the Black Woman CEO Coach, I am starting this podcast because I want to bring to a new stage the successes and insights of Black women CEOs. Yes, we're going to have those who have run Inc. 500 companies, but we're also going to have the everyday sisters who are generating five to six figures, getting paid, doing what they love, sharing their genius with the world, and showcasing their expertise. So, I'm excited. I hope you're excited, and I can't wait to hear all your feedback as you hear these various stories. My Background If you don't know me, like I just said I'm the founder of the Black Women Rise Movement. It's a movement that has touched so far over 4,000 women who really wanted to take charge of their lives through starting a business. My background is in social justice, community organizing, leadership development, all of these awesome things. I have a master's in social work. I have a master's in social work. Let's see, what else? I have certifications in Master and Corporate life Coaching. I support women who are highly educated, ambitious, and driven and want to make a smooth transition from being a full-time employee to being a full-time entrepreneur. What I know... I know that you want to eventually work from home because you have babies now or want them later. I know that you want to build a legacy, specifically, a financial legacy. Most of all, I know you want to own your time and have success on your terms. As a founder of the Black Women Rise Movement, the Black Woman CEO Collective, as a Black Woman CEO coach, I help you to get unstuck so that you can really stop holding yourself back and get in action, right, and actually starting to manifest and actualize this vision that you have for starting a business or helping you grow a business to the point where you're generating consistent income. My Results I've been able to have that success for myself when I was working part-time, and now I'm a full-time entrepreneur. I've been a full-time entrepreneur as of this post for two years, where over these last two years I've generated close to $90,000 in business revenue. It's been really exciting. Through contracts, private coaching, consulting ... I've done a little bit of everything. In addition to me sharing the success stories of Black women CEOs, I'm also going to give you some of my own tips and tricks to doing well in this game. We're going to talk about self-care. We're going to talk about business strategy. We're going to talk about mindset. We're going to talk about systems. Most importantly, we're going to really talk about the key pieces you need to have in place so that you can consistently execute. Because you're not going to manifest your vision, you're not going to actualize your dreams, unless you're in action. [Tweet "You're not going to manifest your vision or actualize your dreams unless you're in action."] Why Black Woman? As someone who has a background in social justice and a master's, where I have really spent hundreds of hours studying the particular challenges of black women when it comes to leadership and entrepreneurship, I'm going to talk from even the research space to tell you how some of our challenges show up because of our unique cultural, historical -and even familial structure- and how it impacts us. Of course, black women, we're not a monolith. Right? We're very diverse in our group. I want to say with that, though, there are some trends, you can say, right, or commonalities. That's why I talk about us as a group from the research standpoint. I have worked for women from the United States, from the East Coast to the West Coast, from Australia, from the UK, so black women globally. Many of us have been socialized the same, right, especially when we think about that image of the strong black woman. [Tweet "Globally, many Black Women have been socialized the same: to be a Strong Black Woman."] These Black Woman CEO Expert Series, as well as their power strategies, the "Profit and Power" strategies I'm going to share with you, are not the everyday knowledge. We're going to go deeper into, really, how do you become the CEO of your life as well as your business? We're talking about transforming you, helping you to rise into a new leadership structure so that you can generate profits but also just have a better life. Really owning your purpose and organize your life so that you're fulfilling your purpose.
